Things You'll Need:
- Correct size fishing line
- Proper weighted fly fishing rod
- Flies
-
Step 1
Remember to use both the forward and the back haul from your early days of fly fishing. Both of these casting techniques are necessary to complete the double haul correctly.
-
Step 2
Put your hands together as you are feeding the fly fishing line. Consider the steps of a double haul--hands together, hands apart, repeat.
-
Step 3
Keep the slack out of the fishing line when you are feeding it to throw your cast. Extra slack in the line can give you less control of your fly fishing line and can make your double haul less effective.
-
Step 4
Use the right equipment. The proper rod weight, fly and size of your fishing line can get in the way of the perfect double haul cast. Check your equipment. Not all fly fishing rods and lines will work for this type of cast, so do your research to ensure you have the proper tools.
-
Step 5
Practice, practice, practice. You aren't going to get the perfect cast on the first try. Take some time before you head out to the stream and practice the double haul.
